In the early 2000s, I noticed a new magazine on the magazine rack – RoadRUNNER Magazine. Printed on thick, oversized paper stock, it immediately stood out and felt great in the hand, more like the smart British motorcycle magazines (BIKE and Two Wheels Only) that I admired. The focus on motorcycle travel was refreshing and…

I recently spoke with Deborah Munies on her new “Let’s Figure It Out” podcast. Deb and I worked years ago at an advertising agency and have kept in touch over the years via Facebook. And just like I’ve drifted away from the world of marketing towards things that I find more invigorating, so has Deb,…

The June 2018 issue of RoadRUNNER Touring and Travel magazine has my fifth and final story about George A Wyman. Available at Barnes & Noble and other fine booksellers. This was one of my most ambitious writing projects ever, and RoadRUNNER did a fantastic job with the layout of each installment. I’ve been laboring on…

And I talk about cats too. Chuck and Todd had a fun show (200 episodes already) and we have a lot of laughs as we talk about motorjournalism, my cross country trip, and whatever else happens to cross their minds.

The fourth part of my five-part George A Wyman story is in the March 2018 issue of RoadRUNNER Magazine. The Great Plains of the Midwest should have been easier than the mountains out west, but they weren’t. But Wyman eventually made it to Chicago, and so did I on the Zero DSR electric motorcycle.

“In the Tire Tracks of a Pioneer: Across the Great Basin Desert” is in the December 2017 issue of RoadRUNNER Magazine. This is the second of a five-part series on George A Wyman, who in 1903 became the first person to cross the country on a motorcycle (or any type of motor vehicle, actually). Part…

I’ve started a new column for RoadRUNNER Magazine called PhotoMojo. In each column I’ll share a bit of what I’ve learned about photographing motorcycles and motorcycle trips over the last twenty years. Gosh, has it really been that long?! Check out the first column in the October 2017 issue of RoadRUNNER Magazine or click here……

I’d like to think that I’ve got motorcycle trip packing down to a science or at least well figured out by now. Sometimes I get a press bike that has a huge topcase and generous panniers and I just throw everything in and go. Other times, I get a cool bike that doesn’t have any…
